[Starlingx-discuss] Mission statement discussion input and workshop
by Ildiko Vancsa 01 May '23

01 May '23

Hi StarlingX Community, As a follow up to the PTG the StarlingX Marketing team started to work on proposals to update the project’s mission statement. The team would like to ask the community for input so we can have a more guided activity and better fitting results. The questions we raised during the Marketing meeting yesterday: * What will be the community’s priorities for the short to mid-term future, meaning the next 1-3 years? * What is the community’s vision with regards to challenges that the StarlingX platform is developed and shaped to solve and address? To ensure progress the Marketing team set up an ad-hoc meeting time for Monday (November 14) at 11am US Pacific Time, to have a workshop and work on options. Anyone who is interested in participating in that conversation please join us on the call! The dial-in link for the meeting is: https://windriver.zoom.us/j/97692404047?pwd=Um93SXBzNFMwL21JUmJYU3dteVNVdz09 Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó ——— Ildikó Váncsa Senior Manager, Community & Ecosystem Open Infrastructure Foundation

[Starlingx-discuss] Project Meeting Minutes
by Waines, Greg 04 Apr '23

04 Apr '23

StarlingX PLs & TLs, An overdue action I had from the StarlingX PTG .... >From our discussions in the PTG around better communication and information sharing within the StarlingX Community, it was proposed that "ALL" weekly or bi-weekly Project Meetings send out Minutes/ProjectUpdate to the StarlingX Discuss Mailing List after every Project Meeting. This is to ensure that all community members (even ones that cannot attend the actual meetings due to timezone reasons or meeting conflicts) have the opportunity to follow discussions, activities, proposed decisions and status of activities going on in the Projects. I realize that a number of Projects are already doing this, please continue. Just want to ensure that all Projects know that this is expected by the community. thanks Greg.

[Starlingx-discuss] Hands-on workshop at the OpenInfra Summit
by Ildiko Vancsa 08 Feb '23

08 Feb '23

Hi StarlingX Community, On last week’s Community Call the idea came up to run the StarlingX Hands-on workshop at the upcoming OpenInfra Summit again. Background: community members used to run a hands-on workshop at OpenInfra Summits and other in-person events to show people how to deploy the platform and get started with the UI. The attendees really liked and appreciated these sessions. The goal of running the workshop again is to raise awareness of the project and help people with getting started with StarlingX. I checked and we have a room where the community could reserve a ~2-hour slot. We can update the content of the workshop to provide the best experience to attendees to learn more about and get more comfortable with the latest version of the platform. The past workshops were running on Equinix HW that was donated to the community by the company. While that infrastructure is currently not available, their offer to provide the community with HW for purposes like this still stands. I will reach out to them once the community confirms to run the workshop in vancouver. What do you all think? Who would be interested in helping out with building and running the workshop? @Greg: Can you provide information about HW needs? Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó ——— Ildikó Váncsa Senior Manager, Community & Ecosystem Open Infrastructure Foundation
